Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that R, N, and M are the ages of Ric, Nancy, and Michael in 1980.

We can write three equations:

R = 2N

N = 2M

(R + 12) + (N + 12) + (M + 12) = 78

Simplify the third equation:

R + N + M + 36 = 78

R + N + M = 42

Substitute the first equation:

2N + N + M = 42

3N + M = 42

Substitute the second equation:

3(2M) + M = 42

6M + M = 42

7M = 42

M = 6

Therefore:

N = 12

R = 24
